Vera Renczi felt pleasure knowing she was the last woman every man had been with. She enjoyed the silence and talking to the ghost of every man for over 15 years. But who can really blame her when it seems like that was the only way they were faithful to her.

Mrs. Renczi believed that her two husbands and numerous lovers were never faithful to her and thus had to murder them to finally acquire the one thing she wished to have in the first place; their undivided attention.

Black Widow.
